Blackberries are really boring in the cookie cutter sense. They all seem to be plagued by the same style over and over. The only BB that was made a splash was the Storm as it drifted away from the same cramped keyboard, vertical position handset and gave as a new facet of RIM using a Touch-screen - even if it failed, on my view, to deliver a good touch input.

When I see a "new" Blackberry, I really roll my eyes as it is basically the same thing as the one before. They are surely reliable handsets, but, I think it is time to start making some more innovative deals. The same path the iPhone is undertaking. Are they ever going to make anything iPhone where you can choose? "Hmm, I want the one with the keyboard.... or maybe the one with only touchscreen. Well, maybe this clamshell" Or Palms identical Treos.

I am so glad companies like Samsung exist. ]]>Jun 30th 2009 10:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/

T-Mobile is a good company that has good plans, but their phones & data network are quite pathetic.

Look at it this way. AT&T has the iPhone & a couple high end Blackberrys, Sprint has the Pre, Verizon has the Storm (Storm 2 is supposed to be much better) and T-Mobile has...the G1. Oh, and those cool Sidekicks. :-/]]>Jun 30th 2009 9:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/Jun 30th 2009 9:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/Jun 30th 2009 9:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/Jul 1st 2009 12:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/Jul 10th 2009 5:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/blackberry-curve-8520-is-a-go-for-us-says-fcc/

4 wheels, 3 wheels, and even amphibians.

Electric motors, air-pump motors, gasoline motors, solar engines, water engines.

1 door, 2 doors, 3 doors, 4 doors, 5 doors!

Red, green, blue, yellow, silver, really?

Many different designs. The Scions that immersed us into the world of square boxes. The Volkswagen Bettle with its bubbly design. The Honda Fit that ignited the mini-car frenzy.

I think we are over the early motor-vehicle development were cars tended to look alike - not even then it was a true statement. Product differentiation has always been a key. Most companies tend to create a wide range of products available from them to cover as much market as possible.

I can't and have never been as efficient at my work as when I am on my Blackberry. Without a doubt the multimedia capabilities of Blackberrys suffer, so switching from its communications to playing music in my car feels clunky, inefficient, and downright dangerous, but that's not its primary function for me. Web browsing is clunky as well. However, the key here is that it does, in fact, perform as a media player, and you can in fact browse the web.

Frankly I am sick and tired of phone reviews that focus on how many games a phone plays or how pretty its interface is or how well it plays video. If I can't multitask and stay connected with multiple people at all times all that is just useless. And that said, Edge is enough for 90% of my needs, only time I wish I had better speeds is when I tether.

I am looking forward to this phone, the optical trackpad is awesome, although I still think the old school thumbwheel was more efficient.
